yourself major demons. What happened to the scythes of Leech and Lilith?”
Vine shrugged.
“No idea. I imagine Lilith has both of them.”
“Right. So Jess takes Lilith’s spot and Aim takes Leech’s. It’s the smart play to make right now. I don’t see another way around it. Oh and we could use the reinforcements to go get Jess her new magic wand or whatever she’s going to ask me for now that Aim got a new gun.”
Jess’s eyebrows shot up.
“Oh so it’s ok for Aim to waste our demons getting a new gun but Jess can just keep limping along with a splintering staff that she’s had for years.”
Aim grinned.
“Sounds good to me.”
“If that’s how we’re going to play it, I want White Death. I earned it more than Aim did.”
“Guys, we’re getting off topic. Do you both agree to take command of the armies?”
Aim nodded eagerly. Jess sighed and then nodded.
“Good. I seriously think it’s our only option. It’ll bring an uneasy stalemate between us and them. They won’t want to make a move if we have superior forces.”
Jess shifted uncomfortably.
“That’s fine for now but it’ll still cause some problems. What about when Shadow finds out? An angry Shadow scares the hell out of me. No offense, but I’m pretty sure he could kill everyone in this room… possibly at the same time.”
“I’ll explain it to Shadow. We go way back. It won’t be a problem. If anyone ever finds Lilith, we can talk to her too. This doesn’t have to be permanent if circumstances change.”
“Should we send someone up to Earth and confirm Vine’s story?”
“Jess… I think Shadow or Lilith will contact us soon enough. I’m not sending anyone up there to be killed by nephilim. Shadow knew my position when he went up there. Contrary to what Aim believes, I don’t have demons to waste on pointless missions.”
“You guys aren’t going to let it go… like ever. Are you?”
“Maybe at some point… but not today, Aim.”
Aim stood and started walking towards the door.
“If that’s the case, I’m going to start putting a sniper team together. I have a lot of demons to go kill to pay for my new gun.”
Jess stood as well.
“I’m going to start looking in to the legendary sorceress staff I want us to go take from the Dragon’s collection. Don’t worry. My plan won’t lose us half of what Aim’s did. I’ll get back to you once I have everything ready to go and you can review it.”
Murmur nodded and Jess left the room. Vine turned to leave as well.
“Wait. Where was Shadow when all of this went down?”
“We were on our way to meet him. I imagine he was close but he didn’t get there in time to help us. Would you like me to track him down?”
“No. No point. Like I said, he’ll contact me when he’s ready. Go down to Aim and help him get his sniper team organized.”
Vine bowed and left the room. Murmur sighed and shook his head.
“Just come back down here, Shadow. Saving the humans was never our responsibility.”
CHAPTER 13
Lilith could see Gangrene and Raven’s faces hovering over her. She saw their mouths moving but couldn’t understand what they were saying. She closed her eyes and tried to focus.
“I think she’s waking up.”
“Finally. Why did you have to hit her so hard?”
“Leech told me to get her out of there. You know how stubborn she is. This was the only way.”
Lilith opened her eyes again. She sat up in a panic.
“The baby?”
Raven held up baby Lucia, who was napping.
“Ok. Then what happened? Where’s Leech?”
Gangrene and Raven looked at each other with concern and sadness.
“How much do you remember?”
Lilith frowned.
“I remember you clocking me in the head with a scythe.”
“And right before that?”
“Before that… Azazel appeared and…”
An intense migraine overcame Lilith. She closed her eyes and rested her head in her hands.
“Leech um…”
She opened her eyes and tried to shake out the cobwebs in her head.
Vine shrugged.
“No idea. I imagine Lilith has both of them.”
